    What about Carter and Marcus to the Wiz for Arenas? Wiz may lose Gilbert for nothing and they probably are wondering if they're not better off without him. However, as well as they are playing they need some back court help.

    The Nets could start Gilbert at the 2:
    Kidd/Armstrong
    Arenas/Wright
    Jefferson/Nachbar
    Williams/Krstic
    Boone/Collins

    Washington would be pretty deadly with:
    Daniels/Williams
    Carter/Young
    Butler/Stevenson
    Jamison/Songalia
    Haywood/Blatche

    One big college reunion. Carter and Jamison reuntied and Jefferson and Arenas reunited.

    I love it, but I'm not a Wizards fan.

    Does this mean you think it's better for the Wiz than the Nets? Or that Wiz fans will hate it?

    Arenas is a much better scorer than Carter at this stage and is better suited as a 2 guard who can sometimes back-up Kidd. If the Nets can't re-sign him for something similar to Carter's deal then you look to get something in a sign and trade. Maybe with the Bulls over the summer? Maybe you re-sign Gilbert and move Kidd in the last year of his deal? More flexibility and options than now. Maybe the deal is Carter and Williams for Gilbert and Stevenson? That way we have some 2 guard incase Gilbert doesn't comeback this season.

    No. It means the opposite.

    If they won't pay Arenas, why would they pay Carter?

    Arenas dominates the ball as the point on that team and they are playing better without him. Carter is obviously deferring to teammates at this stage and that fits perfectly with Butler and Jamison. And they get a point in Marcus.

    I don't think Arenas' relationship has been that good with that franchise. Maybe I'm mistaken on that.
